    Abstract

    The palm genusAstrocaryum with 40 species is common in tropical South America extending northwards reaching

    Central America and Trinidad. Twenty-six species grow in Brazil, 14 in Peru, 11 in Colombia, 9 in Guyana, 9 in

    Suriname, 8 in Bolivia, 8 in French Guiana, 6 in Venezuela, 4 in Ecuador, 2 in Costa Rica, 2 in Panama, and 1

    in Trinidad. The genus includes solitary or caespitose species in the following classes: (i) large palms with tall

    stem, (ii) palms with large leaves and medium-sized, or short, or subterranean stem, (iii) slender to medium-

    sized palms, (iv) acaulescent palms with very short leaves. Although most Astrocaryum species are used by

    humans, only a few may have promising economic potential and are signicantly important in the local and

    regional trade. In this article, I propose a new taxonomic classication based on characters of the fruit, owers

    and vegetative parts. The genus is divided in three subgenera: (i) Munbaca with two sections, Munbaca and

    Mumbacusu, each with 2 species; (ii)Astrocaryum with two sections, Euchambira (new section with 1 species)

    andAstrocaryum with three subsections Astrocaryum (9 species), Acaulia (5 species) and Perstaminata

    (new subsection with 1 species); (iii) Monogynanthus with four sections: Monogynanthus (with 3 species),Ayri

    (1 species), Guatinajo (new section with 1 species) and Huicungo (new section) that includes three subsections

    Huicungo (7 species); Sachacungo (new subsection with 5 species), and Murumuru (3 species). A synoptic

    review of the genus is presented herein, including descriptions and illustrations as well as data on distribution,

    habit, ecology and common names for each species. An identication key to all species is also supplied.

    Keywords:Astrocaryum, Arecaceae, taxonomy, distribution, ecology, uses, economic potential.

    Resumen

    El gneroAstrocaryum con 40 especies es comn en las regiones intertropicales de Amrica del Sur y se ex-

    tiende al norte hasta Amrica central y Trinidad. Son 26 las especies que crecen en Brasil, 14 se encuentran

    en Per, 11 en Colombia, 9 en Guyana, 9 en Suriname, 8 en Boliv ia, 8 en Guiana francesa, 6 en Venezuela, 4

    en Ecuador, 2 en Costa Rica y Panama, 1 en Trinidad. El gnero produce palmeras solitarias o cespitosas en

    las siguientes categorias: (i) palmeras grandes de tallo alto, (ii) palmeras de hojas largas y de tallo mediano

    o corto o subterrneo, (iii) palmeras delgadas a medianas, (iv) palmeras acaulescentes de hojas cortas. La

    mayora de las especies son utilizadas por los pobladores de las zonas rurales; sin embargo pocas son las que

    tienen importancia en los mercados locales y regionales. Se propone aqu una nueva clasicacin del gnero

    Astrocaryum en tres subgneros, basada en los caracteres del fruto, de las ores y de las partes vegetativas:

    (i) Munbaca con dos secciones, Munbaca y Mumbacusu, cada una con 2 especies; (ii) Astrocaryum con 2

    secciones, Euchambira (seccin nueva con 1 especie) yAstrocaryum con tres subsecciones Astrocaryum

    (9 especies), Acaulia (5 especies) y Perstaminata (subseccin nueva con 1 especie); (iii) Monogynanthuscon cuatro secciones: Monogynanthus (con 3 especies), Ayri (1 especie), Guatinajo (seccin nueva con 1

    especie), y Huicungo (seccin nueva) que incluye tres subsecciones Huicungo (7 especies), Sachacungo

    (subseccin nueva con 5 especies) y Murumuru (3 especies). Se presenta una tabla sinptica del gnero con

    las referencias de las descripciones e ilustraciones de cada una de las especies, datos sobre su distribucin

    geogrca, forma de vida y ecologa, y los nombres vernculos ms comunes. Una clave de identicacin de

    las especies es presentada.

    Palabras clave:Astrocaryum, Arecaceae, taxonoma, distribucin, ecologa, usos, potencial econmico.

    rarely more, up to 30 cm in diameter, usually 1525 cm), orshort-stemmed (up to 34 m long) orsubacaulescent (stem up to 1 m long, en-

    tirely covered with the sheaths of dead leaves), or acaulescent (the palm does not produce any stem above ground; leaf sheaths and parts

    of petioles and peduncles are in the soil); (iii) slender to medium-sized palms (stem up to 12 m long, up to 15 cm in diameter, leaves about

    2.53 m long); and (iv) small, short-leafed (up to 2 m long), acaulescent palms. A caespitose species can produce either multistemmed indi-

    vidual palms or single stemmed individual palms with new branching basally, or single stemmed individual palms without branching basally; the

    character caespitose will be veried by observing several individual palms in the population.commonnames (Martius, 1844; Barbosa Rodrigues,1903; Bailey, 1933; Burret, 1934; Dugand, 1940a; Wessels Boer, 1965; Glassman, 1972; Boom, 1988; De Nevers et al. 1988; Galeano-Garcset al. 1988; Kahn and Granville, 1991; Kahn and Milln, 1992; Henderson et al. 1995; Borchsenius et al. 1998; Moraes, 2004).
